Rebirth of a Village Girl novel Chapter 467

Chapter 467: 130: I am Mr. Mog_5

How can someone denigrate their own country so much?

Li Long said: “Miss Ji, you’re mistaken. Traditional Chinese Medicine has been passed down for thousands of years and has benefited countless humans. If Traditional Chinese Medicine were really as bad as you say, wouldn’t China have been destroyed long ago?”

Miss Ji laughed lightly, and replied: “If Traditional Chinese Medicine is really that good, why is it that you can’t find a Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital on every street corner?” The few existing Traditional Chinese Medicine Stores are on the brink of closure.

Western Medicine dominates today, and it is indeed difficult to find large-scale Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospitals in the country.

Li Long frowned slightly, “Miss Ji, what you’re saying is simply unreasonable!”

Miss Ji said: “Li Long, being patriotic is good, but we must be sensible. Do you realize that your suggestion could kill Auntie?”

No matter what, Miss Ji would not believe in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Over the years, all her serious and minor illnesses had been cured by Western Medicine.

She vaguely remembers, when she was very young, she also drank extremely bitter Chinese medicinal soup.

A simple cold can be cured by Western Medicine with just one injection, while Traditional Chinese Medicine would require a week of specifically prepared concoctions for a slow recovery.

This is also why Traditional Chinese Medicine declined so rapidly.

With that, Miss Ji looked at Abner, “Mr. Abner, do you still want to consult a Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor?”

Abner pinched his temple, “Let me think a bit more.”

Li Long wanted to say something, but he swallowed his words.

After a while, Abner said: “Li Long, go ahead and get a Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor to give it a try.”

Miss Ji turned pale and was about to speak, but she was stopped by Abner’s raised hand.

Miss Ji had to shut her mouth with discontent.

Li Long was happy, and replied, “Yes, sir.”

The Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor was brought back quickly, an old man in his sixties or seventies with white hair.

Li Long took the initiative to introduce him: “Mr. Abner, this is Doctor Wang. Doctor Wang comes from a long line of Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners. His ancestors served as imperial doctors in the palace. He has a high reputation in Sijiu City.”

Miss Ji’s face was full of disdain. What kind of nonsense imperial doctor!

If he were so skilled, would the Qing Dynasty have fallen?

Fortunately, Doctor Wang did not notice Miss Ji’s contempt.

Doctor Wang replied: “Thank you for your compliment, but there’s always a bigger fish. The depth and breadth of Traditional Chinese Medicine are vast. Just because I can’t treat the disease, doesn’t mean others can’t.”

Miss Ji snorted, “I told you long ago that Traditional Chinese Medicine is outdated, inflexible, and incapable of treating serious diseases. Li Long, you didn’t believe me. Now do you see it with your own eyes?”

She belittled and dismissed Traditional Chinese Medicine in her words, infuriating Doctor Wang who was listening!

“Young lady, how dare you speak this way?”

Miss Ji laughed, “Don’t get worked up. I’m not targeting you, I’m simply stating facts.”

“What facts? You’re insulting Traditional Chinese Medicine!” As a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Doctor Wang would not allow anyone to insult it.

Miss Ji retorted, “If Traditional Chinese Medicine is truly effective, why couldn’t you cure Auntie’s illness? I’ll tell you a hard truth – don’t take it to heart. We’re now living in an era dominated by Western Medicine. Traditional Chinese Medicine should have been overthrown long ago!”

If our people don’t strive, sooner or later, they will be enslaved!

The tragedy of invasion will be repeated.

“This is due to my personal limitations and has nothing to do with Traditional Chinese Medicine!” Doctor Wang replied: “Since you think Western Medicine is so powerful, why couldn’t it cure this lady’s illness?”

Miss Ji was left speechless.
